I want better sound off my Sennheiser 650's and Beats PRO's (which I bought from an unsatisfied person on kijiji). I read that getting a headphone amp is that way to go. Portable or not I'm looking for something under the $150 mark. I'm thinking of purchasing the Fiio E5 or E7 but I'm not really...
How much difference is there in terms of sound quality? I sampled my cousin's Dre Beats Pro headphones on an iPhone and sounded great. I can't really compare it to "studio" quality because I haven't heard it before but I guess it would matter if I did.
I'm open to all types of music except for country. I mainly listen to R&B, soft pop, classic rock, heavy metal, rap and hip-hop. Price range isn't really a concern for my parents since it is the last gift they'll ever give me but I guess under $600 is good enough. I always listen to my music on...
My parents are thinking of getting me something as a graduation gift and I decided I wanted a pair of amazing studio headphones. I had the choice of Sennheiser's or the Dre Beats PRO. I've watched a couple of reviews on some random studio headphones and some of the reviewers noted that they...
I already have a list of parts that I'm going to buy. Here they are:
Case: CoolerMaster HAF 922
PSU: CoolerMaster 600W
Video Card: nvidia evga gtx 560 ti superclocked
Processor: i5-2500k
HDD: Western Digital Caviar black 1tb
Memory: Gskill ripjaws series 4gb
Motherboard: Asus Z68
The components that I'm about to buy are worth $900+ but I'm feeling a little hesitant because of my peers. A friend told me you'll need to take classes at some kind of computer institute before building up my gaming PC. I think taking classes just to put the parts together sounds too much. I...
Mine hasn't arrived yet but what's the first thing you should do when you boot up your new PC? I'm pretty confident in installing the components but booting it up for the first time is my concern. This is obviously my very first gaming PC so what am I to expect when I first boot it up?
How do you check the temperature of your video card in Celsius? What should be the temperature when gaming on your PC?
Now that you've told me that, I feel a bit discouraged in buying the Radeon 6950 HD. I guess there are some costs in playing Witcher 2 on max settings with ubersampling. I...
I was thinking about changing from an EVGA Superclocked GeForce GTX 560 ti to the Sapphire Radeon HD 6950 2GB . I watched a review on the HD 6950 that there are some heat concerns. I'd hate to have my card fried the first week.
**Sorry if I sound a bit noob-ish. This is my first rig I'll ever...
Wow thanks. You just saved me 40 Canadian dollars! I chose the MSI Z68MA-ED55 (B3) LGA 1155 Intel Z68 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 Micro ATX Intel Motherboard. Is that better? Is everything else compatible with eachother now? I'm planning to go cheaper with the video card CD/DVD drive if there's...
Thanks for the notice. I changed it to a G.SKILL Ripjaws Series 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Desktop Memory Model F3-12800CL9D-4GBRL
The tasks that I'll most likely perform are web surfing, online movie watching, and gaming... definitely gaming. I spend around 6-7 hours on my free time at weekends and an hour or two during weekdays. The reason why I'm turning over to PC gaming is that it can run games consoles cannot. The...
Cool, good to feel welcome. I'm really excited to start building my first PC and I'll be sure as hell to ask questions frequently on this forum starting by tomorrow. Looks like people know their stuff here.
I decided to build my own rig since it's the most reliable way to do it. I need some tips on how to customize my own rig. I honestly don't know where to start. Here are some things you should. My PC is as old as it can get. The old thing is about 6-7 years old. I mainly use it to surf the web...
